Check calendar openings before you schedule
Ask Notis to find workable openings in Google Calendar before you settle on a Calendly meeting time.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Find free slots
Finds free/busy time slots in google calendars for specified calendars within a defined time range (defaults to the current day utc if `time min`/`time max` are omitted), enhancing busy intervals with event details; `time min` must precede `time max` if both are provided.
Why this helps
Checking multiple calendars by hand can interrupt scheduling and lead to offering a time that is already busy.
- Review openings across specified calendars
- Reduce back and forth when considering a meeting time
- Keep availability checks in one prompt based workflow
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Calendly and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Describe in one instruction how Notis should check openings for a proposed scheduling window.
- 4Pick a webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real request that includes the calendars and time range to check.
Questions about this workflow
Does this create a Calendly meeting?
No. It checks Google Calendar for free slots. Scheduling the meeting in Calendly remains a separate step.
What does the request need to include?
Provide the calendars to check and a time range whose start is before its end.
What happens if no time range is supplied?
The Google Calendar action defaults to the current UTC day, so include a range when you need a different window.
